Fluid Removed Again

We found that the difficulty with breathing was caused by an increase of Pleural Effusion (fluid around lungs) again. The fluid was removed from around the right lung this afternoon, which gave Carol significant relief. There is also fluid around the left lung that is of a lesser volume and is hoped to dissipate without intervention.

Carol was able to take a couple of walks in the hall today, and pain from the surgery has been greatly reduced, for which we are most thankful.

Ongoing concerns for prayer are: (1) Continued wheezing, (2) Accumulation of pleural fluid around the lungs, (3) A low-grade temperature and (4) Needed digestive functions to return.

Join us in thanking the Lord for his peace and loving care. Your prayers are being answered!
